Hands-On: The Cl¨¦ De Cartier In Rose Gold And Steel
Last January at the 2015 edition of the SIHH, Cartier launched a major new family of wristwatches called the Clé De Cartier – named for the key-like, oblong winding and setting crown set into the flank of the case. We went hands on with the original launch models and we were very impressed by not only the visual, but also the tactile aspects of the design – the watch felt great in the hand and on the wrist, and the crown was just different enough to give a tingle of pleasure, but not so unusual as to become an obstacle to convenience. The Clé De Cartier family was also the launch platform for a new movement: the Cartier caliber 1847, which is the newest in-house general purpose Cartier movement, as well as its least expensive. The finish is not as elaborate as on, say, the 1904 MC (found in the Calibre de Cartier) but it comes in at a lower price as well, which puts the Clé De Cartier in a generally more affordable price bracket – the model we&rsq

EXCLUSIVE: Introducing The Piaget Altiplano 38mm 900P, The Thinnest Mechanical Watch In The World (L
Piaget is the king of ultra-thin watches, holding more than a dozen records in various categories. This expertise goes all the way back to 1957 with the invention of the Calibre 9P, the first Piaget ultra-thin movement and what today is a real classic. To celebrate the mark's 140th anniversary, the Piaget has gone for the biggest record of all and released the Altiplano 900P, the world's thinnest mechanical watch. It has taken some serious technological breakthroughs to get to a staggering 3.65mm thin and the result is a surprisingly wearable watch. Here we have an exclusive first look at this amazing watch, complete with live photos and pricing.While Piaget holds many of the ultra-thin records, the overall thinnest mechanical watch title was previously held by Jaeger-LeCoultre for the Master Ultra-Thin Jubilee, which comes in at 4.05mm. But now, thinner by a full .4mm, the Altiplano 900P has climbed on top. Normally here we'd start talking about the thin movement and how i

...a giant scratch on my clasp!
OH MY GOD! I was putting a suitcase in the attic and I put a GIANT scratch on the clasp of my (gulp) *new* SMP! So, what should I do? I've heard people talk about steel wool and the like, but I think I'd rather take a more pay-a-professional-to-buff-it-out-for-me sort of approach. Is this something anyone has experience with? How much should it cost me? Will it be noticeable?Thanks in advance for advice.

39mm Day Date
Did you know there is currently a 39mm Day Date? A "Special Edition", available in several formats? I've never seen oneOf course, the price ranges from $46K - 249K dollars (no that's not a typo, a 1/4 million dollars!! ), so I doubt it's something most stores would carry. They all seem to have at least diamonds on the dial too (which I'm not fond of to be honest). But jut thought it was curious as I'd never noticed these 39mm DD's before. While probably not something I'd be interested in buying even if I had that kind of money to spend on a watch (a bit too much bling with 18K gold & diamond dials) anyone got any pictures of these?
